When chickens grow up, the roosters often develop the red comb and wattle, and denser feathers, before hens. Fully-grown roosters are usually larger than the hens. They have a leaner, less 'dumpy' shape, and their tail feathers are much larger and curve out. They often have a larger, brighter comb and wattle. They also strut around, crow, and if run with hens will attempt to mount them.
